Genshin Impact: Dionysus reigns supreme, all demons retreat!

This is a difficult question to answer.

After all, the white snake said that this was clearly the first time they had met.

Xu Ning focused his gaze on the small flower Bai Shu was holding and said in a deep voice, "I don't know who he is. I just saw that he was holding a Bai Shu plant in his hand."

Xu Ning saw Bai Shu smiling as he looked him up and down, clearly suspicious that Xu Ning had just called out his name.

However, the white snake was unrestrained and blurted it out.

The White Snake chuckled and said, "So you were greeting the flower just now? You're not being honest!"

Xu Ning smiled slightly and did not argue with it, but the blue-clad figure wrapped around his left arm was unhappy.

My master is talking to that white atractylodes, but you, my pet snake, keep interrupting, making it seem as if my master is inferior to you.

What? Do you think everyone keeps a little snake at home?

"There are so many words in this world, yet you choose a medicinal herb as your name? I suspect it's a pseudonym, something you're trying to hide. I don't think you're being very honest!"

"I'm retorting," Qingyi retorted, tilting her head back from Xu Ning's left arm.

Bai Shu and the White Snake were surprised that the green snake on Xu Ning's body could also speak, and they immediately turned their gazes towards him.

The white snake sneered, "He has been sickly since childhood. He named his name after a medicinal herb to pray for the Medicine Lord's blessing. Not only is it easy to pronounce, but it's also easy for anyone from Liyue to understand. What's wrong with this name?"

The woman in green retorted again: "Putting aside whether the name is right or wrong, the fact that we happened to meet someone named Baishu in the mountains, and who happened to be holding a Baishu plant in his hand? Something is definitely amiss, it must be fake!"

"You are using strong words to make sense!"

"So what if I force myself on you?"

Seeing that the two snakes had gotten into a heated argument in just a few words, Xu Ning and Bai Shu looked at each other and smiled helplessly.

The two of them simultaneously removed the small snakes from their bodies and placed them on the stone bench under the pavilion, letting them argue as they pleased.

The two walked a few steps apart, and Xu Ning spoke first, saying, "My name is Xu Ning, and I will call you Bai Shu. Judging from your attire, you don't seem to be from Liyue Harbor."

Bai Shu nodded and said in a gentle and refined manner, "This is the first time a person from the mountains has left the valley. His original intention was to go to Liyue Harbor to broaden his horizons, but he heard halfway there that there is a sacred mountain in Minlin, so he thought he would come here to visit the immortals and also pick some herbs."

Xu Ning casually looked around but didn't see anyone else.

So, you're alone now?

Bai Shu laughed and said, "It's a bit inappropriate to talk about one person. I also have Changsheng with me. Oh, I mean, that little white snake from earlier."

When Xu Ning heard his denial, her heart skipped a beat.

However, after learning that Bai Shu was referring to the little white snake's immortality, Xu Ning was relieved. It seemed that Bai Shu hadn't encountered the little zombie girl yet.

"Visiting immortals depends entirely on chance. The immortal's cave here is tightly closed. I'm afraid you've come at the wrong time."

Bai Zhu laughed nonchalantly, "To have it is my fortune, to not have it is my fate."

Xu Ning looked at Bai Shu's carefree demeanor, but he didn't believe it at all.

In my impression, those in Teyvat, whether they are engaged in scientific research or medicine, are all experts at getting to the bottom of things, and their greatest skill is to stick to one path to the end.

The fact that Bai Zhu named his little snake "Chang Sheng" reveals that although he appears carefree, he is probably deeply obsessed with something else.

Xu Ning not only didn't want to get close to such a person, but he also didn't want that stiff little girl to fall into his hands.

Who knows what weird things this guy might do to her!

Xu Ning didn't want to have anything more to do with Bai Shu, so he said goodbye, "Since you're mentally prepared, that's good. I've rested enough, so let's say goodbye here. Qingyi, I... what are you doing?"

Just as Xu Ning was about to call out to the little green snake to leave, he turned around and saw that the two snakes were already entangled together, tearing at each other.

No wonder it's been so quiet all of a sudden!

It turns out both mouths were busy biting each other!

Xu Ning and Bai Shu quickly ran over and pulled the two small snakes, one green and one white, apart.

Still not satisfied, the man in green shouted, "I'm just not fully recovered yet. Otherwise, if I revealed my true form, I could crush you like an earthworm..."

Changsheng stretched out his body and roared, "Come on, I don't even need to wait, I'll devour you right now."

Xu Ning and Bai Shu comforted their respective pets, exchanged awkward smiles, and then Xu Ning turned around to continue searching for amber.

"Although you've been quite timid these past few days, I have to commend you for what you just did. Well done..."

Xu Ning grabbed the wine gourd and cracked open a bright piece of amber. He watched as the rock slime jumped out of it, then kicked it down the mountain.

Having found another one, Xu Ning took a sip of wine, stuffed the gourd back in its container, and continued tapping.

"I also dislike that guy. Every time I see him, I want to smash his glasses..."

This time, we knocked out a baby wild boar.

"Oh, perfect timing. If we still can't find one tonight, we'll have this little guy for dinner. And let you try my cooking..."

The last sentence was spoken by Xu Ning to the blue robe on his left arm.

But as soon as he finished speaking, someone next to him chimed in, "This is truly amazing."

Xu Ning was suddenly startled, and his leg trembled so much that he kicked the little wild boar down as well.

Turning around, I was surprised to find Bai Shu and Chang Sheng standing silently behind me.

"You...when did you come?"

Bai Shu said with a smile, "I just arrived. I came here because I saw this amber."

I believe you!

When Xu Ning saw the little snake glaring angrily at him, he knew that the creature had probably been following him for a while.

I'm afraid every word I just said has reached the ears of both the man and the snake.

However, since the other party did not seem to have any negative feelings about his earlier remarks, Xu Ning simply assumed they had just arrived.

"You seem to have a lot of free time. Aren't you going to seek immortals? Let me tell you, it's not just in this mountain, almost every mountain peak in this area has an immortal living on it."

Bai Shu shook his head slightly after hearing Xu Ning's words and said, "The time is not right, and it would be futile to force it. I've seen you wandering around in these mountains for a long time, constantly knocking on this amber and looking for something."

Xu Ning saw that this guy had no intention of leaving and even seemed to be sticking to him, which gave him a headache.

"Oh, it's just that my sister and I got separated around here. I think she might be trapped inside this amber..."

The little white snake Changsheng snorted coldly, "Clearly lying. If your sister really had fallen into danger, why are you so calm and collected, without any worry at all?"

Bai Shu gently patted Chang Sheng's head and smiled, "There's really no need to worry too much."

“I see that the amber around here is both new and old, but the animals or elemental creatures that were trapped inside, no matter when they were trapped, seem to have had their lives preserved at the moment they were encased, and they are completely unchanged when they are rescued.”

"This is also a kind of immortality! The methods of immortals are truly extraordinary!"

Xu Ning continued tapping the amber, thinking to himself, "Isn't this just a cryogenic chamber that can be thawed at will?"

He explained to Bai Shu, "This isn't some kind of magical technique. It's made from a plant called 'wasabi.' The moment you step on it, it releases a liquid that envelops you, forming this amber."

"If you need it, go find one yourself, take it home, jump into it, and you'll live forever."

Bai Shu seemed to sense the sarcasm in Xu Ning's words, his brow furrowing imperceptibly before he smiled and said, "I think this might not be true immortality. The power of wear and tear is almost everywhere. Even if we are sealed in amber, the power of wear and tear will probably gradually consume our spirit, memories, intellect, and everything else."

Xu Ning thought about it and felt that Bai Zhu was right, otherwise the gods should really be given one each.

Xu Ning walked up to a large piece of amber covered with a thin layer of gray, and was about to start working on it.

Bai Shu suddenly spoke up to stop them.

“Your sister just fell into this pit, and this pit has obviously been exposed to wind and rain for many days, so your sister is definitely not in it.”

"And nature that has been almost completely weathered away is even more impossible."

Bai Zhu casually patted open a large piece of amber next to him, its color almost indistinguishable, and it seemed likely to crack on its own soon.

A little girl dressed in blue is lying quietly inside.
